I have to say my knowledge on the vampires themselves (Lestat, Louis, David, Armand, Daniel, Akasha, Claudia, Marius and so on) is pretty good. The film captured them with some apeal. Marius is not exactly like that however his interest in the arts is prime and Lestat became into the whole music scene expecially rock and his want for public attention will always be there. Akasha I have no clue what they tried do here. It wasn't even about her. But they mixed two books together the incredible The Vampire Lestat and Queen of the Damn.

As for the book.... The book is beautiful and well worth checking out. I also require check out her new books Blackwood Farms and Blood Canidate (sp?)

everyone has one friend they would trust blindley, including me, so if he says its a good book then its a good book

Yeah, I know what you mean. I trust this guy with my life, but not my film choices though.:)

I watched the movie and i thought that it was desent, not the best, but i have seen worse.
After i watched the movie everyone was like the book was so much better, so I go out and buy it,
I wasted $10 on that book, I got to chapter 5 and fell asleep, It was so boring, never finished the book. After that book i tried reading some of Rices other books and they just didnt captivate me.
I will say two good things and one bad thing about the movie
good-Lestat was so fucking hot
bad-I could of done a better acting job and I suck at acting
good-the music rocked

movie cool
 

I saw the movie and I really like it!!
I love the music most of all!
I still need to read the book through.

Queen of the Damned as a movie sucked filthy donkey pizzles in my humble opinion as a book both it and Vampire Lestat were absolutely amazing but it has to rate as one of the worst movies i have ever paid to go see!!

Interview WTV, however was great, loved it, loved it, loved it!

Anne Rice is a fantastic writer - the Mayfair witches trilogy was incredible! Shame QOTD did her such an injustice!

JH's other half

not true
 

I have to disagree.
I thought the movie was great.
I liked it better then the first vampire movie they mode from her books!

I haven't read the book. But, I've seen the movie. I've heard from people who have read the book, that it is VERY different from the movie. But, that's fine. It doesn't keep me from liking The Queen of the Damned.

wishing
 

I wish they would make more movies from her books!
